3.3 Temperature regulation
The temperature is regulated
automatically.
1. Turn the Temperature regulator
toward lower settings to obtain the
minimum coldness.

4. DAILY USE

4.1 Freezing fresh food
The freezer compartment is suitable for
freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.
To freeze fresh foods it is not necessary to
change the medium setting.
Place the fresh food to be frozen on the
top compartment.
For a faster freezing operation, turn the
temperature regulator toward higher
settings to obtain the maximum coldness.
4.2 Storage of frozen food
When first starting-up or after a period out
of use, before putting the products in the
compartment let the appliance run at least
2 hours on the higher settings.
A medium setting is generally
the most suitable. However,
the exact setting should be
chosen keeping in mind that
the temperature inside the
appliance depends on:
• room temperature,
• how often the door is
opened,
• the quantity of food
stored,
• the location of the
appliance.
CAUTION!
In this condition, the
refrigerator compartment
temperature might drop
below 0°C. If this occurs
reset the temperature
regulator to a warmer setting.
2. Turn the Temperature regulator
toward higher settings to obtain the
maximum coldness.
CAUTION!
If the ambient temperature is
high or the appliance is fully
loaded, and the appliance is
set to the lowest
temperatures, it may run
continuously causing frost to
form on the rear wall. In this
case the dial must be set to a
higher temperature to allow
automatic defrosting and
therefore reduced energy
consumption.
In the event of accidental
defrosting, for example due
to a power failure, if the
power has been off for longer
than the value shown in the
technical characteristics chart
under "rising time", the
defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then re-
frozen (after cooling).
4.3 Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being
used, can be thawed in the refrigerator
compartment or at room temperature,
depending on the time available for this
operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked still
frozen, directly from the freezer: in this
case, cooking will take longer.
